==Overview==

During the [[Battle of Isstvan III]] many World Eaters went completely berserk with rage and bloodlust and only left the battlefield in chains. The [[Techmarine]]s of the World Eaters later made customized suits of [[Terminator Armour]] to serve as both wargear and a means of confinement. These suits were, in effect, mechanical prison cells that could be immobilized with the press of a button.{{Fn|1}}
